I watched Boiler Room Last Night. Ask Me anything.
This movie is a harder-edged Wall Street in a lot of ways.

2. I like it.
It was a good morality tale. I like it for the same reason I like Wall Street.

3. I knew people who worked for Bob Brennan
First Jersey Securities. I am convinced that movie was inspired or based on him.

Is Brennan the J.T. Marlin of this tale.

5. It is a very interesting morality tale.
talks about the evils of the business world and how one needs to watch their step. I think it reflects on today's society a lot.
